>>106531889no way this is the 10 vii
Why the iPhone hate? You're instigating flamewars OP.
Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra & the iPhone 16 Pro Max showing us why they are the global sales leaders.Higher build quality devices with better service and OS support for a few years!No low end ccp meme phone will ever surpass better quality companies.
Reminder to keep your phone screens clean and especially make sure your screen protector is applied properly and is clean too. It lowers the quality of what you're seeing if the screen protector has pubes and air bubbles under it.
>Android flagships and budget phones are being outsold by iPhones globally. A base model iPhone 16 phone this year and the base model iPhone 15 did the same thing last year. Grim
>>106531889why did they do it? the xperias looked so beautiful up until this

Yall arguing who has the best phone, I got 5g in my brain anons. I’m levels ahead of your devices. My brain is the smartphone.Brain Implants Won.
Sony is low quality

What's a good phone for under 500€?
>>106532462HTC Desire 510.
>>106532421oh in that case enjoy. outside of company specific features like pixel's camera magic eraser or how sony's software is actually kind of buggy despite being stripped down and also the Dolby Sound defaults ruining wired headphones, i don't really have problems with their phones.
>>106532316Apple already forces you to identify yourself iirc even for developing sideloaded apps. Android will still be more flexible. Not a good change, I agree, but not worse than Apple. Plus you can more easily sideload apps from identified developers outside the EU.
>>106532548Holy Cope!
>>106532418Nothing stopping you from buying a used unlocked phone with VoLTE. Unless you are on a shitty US carrier with a whitelist.
samsung a26 6/128 for 216$worth it?
>>106532565How is that cope? I was responding to the notion that Apple lets you sideload from unidentified developers... You still have to have a developer license and fork over your data to Apple to make an iOS app.While a bad move, it's not worse than Apple currently, even in the EU.
>>106532572US carriers have the best 5G unlike other places lacking any resources for further development.
is this thing about google locking down android next year a nothingburger or an actual issue?
>>106532607I think China is better. Here's what Gemini says:>South Korea, Brazil, and Singapore are among the countries with the fastest median 5G speeds, with South Korea leading at 347.91 Mbps. The United Arab Emirates and Qatar also show high speeds, with the UAE having a median download speed of 546.14 Mbps.
>>106532633USA has the best 5G coverage.
>>106532715I can't wait to visit the country of Europe. Also South Korea is higher.
>>106532715LOL Mexico has a better cellular network over india. You don't live in South Korea & I live in the USA. Represent where you live and don't cap little bro.
is e/os/ actually degoogled or do you have to use SOMETHING from google for it to work properly with all the day to day apps etc? or am i better off with graphene (i'm looking at fairphone because it's a better idea than googel pixel)
Is there a phone out there that has just all of the features but not too an amazong standard? I want something cheapish but I want it to have everything, headphone jack, RF blaster, pressure sensor, thermometer, etc etc. Everything. But I don't need it to have an amazing cpu, or screen. That being said are there any good e-ink phones? I love e-ink on my ereader so if there are phone equivalents id like to see them.
i'm looking at getting a new motorola since they seem to be one of the few manufacturers still including a 3.5 jack and sd slot. i like the g stylus since it has more ram than the standard g model, plus a snapdragon compared to the rest of the lineup having a dimensity. i dunno how much i would actually use the stylus though, and the standard moto g is fairly cheaper. wat do?im currently rocking a 7 year old moto e5 with 2gb of ram so anything would be a serious upgrade at this point.
>>106532613Google couldn't possibly be stupid enough to disallow side loading right after apple just got forced to allow it.Right?
>>106532849They will allow it but the developer of the app has to sign up as a dev with Google. This means if you make an adblocking app Google will simply not let you sign up
>>106532788>is e/os/ actually degoogledYes> or do you have to use SOMETHING from google for it to work properly with all the day to day apps etcDepends what you apps you use. I think they use microg which would make GrapheneOS devs mad>or am i better off with grapheneSecurity is the focus, removal of Google services by default a side effect. It also allows you to easily install sandboxed Play Services should you want it. >i'm looking at fairphone because it's a better idea than googel pixelWhy? Worse hardware for le modular meme?
>>106532886Yes Saar they are taking away VPN with content filters,, Brave and Firefox because they block ads. Very much doing the needful.
OnePlus won!!
One week with my pixel 9 + lineage OS. I like the screen, the haptics and camera. I don't like the fingerprint sensor and touch sensitivity. There are some mis-touches when playing chess. As far as the performance goes, it doesn't feel faster than my Poorco F1? What the hell? Anyways, it's a side-grade not truly an upgrade. Are other high-end phones better? I don't have options as Pixel is the only option for lineage os.
>>106532974LOL a Poco F1 lost to a Pixel 9.
>>106532902no, i don't want to give google, a US Company, money and fairphone's business seems closer to what i think is a good ideawhat's the problem with microg? isn't it just spoofing google apis?
>>106532316>iPhone will be the only option for side loadinghahahah
>>106533049MicroG is probably fine but GrapheneOS devs are autistic about security and don't trust that microG will be secure. That's why they don't support it. Perhaps Google could ban accounts used with MicroG but unlikely. But if you use neither microg nor sandboxed play services you have nothing to worry about, but in my experience it's basically impossible to use banking and some other apps and games even with these alternatives. You can sometimes use the bank website but it might not have all features. You can just not play games. It all depends how far you want to take the FOSS approach. You can sacrifice convenience for security and privacy but unless you just use your phone for calling, texting (no RCS), browsing, and open source apps it's going be a struggle.
>>106532422>Editor's choiceI thought you were all about "facts not opinion". The iPhone 16 pro max factually doesn't have the best battery life. Don't get me wrong, it's very good, but it's not the best.
>>106532353i am using it now and i say only go for it if you really care about having a flagship soc phone with an sd card slot
>>106531889>wideslopit's over
>>106532819for the price you don't really have a lot of other options unless you go buy a 3-4 year used/refurbished flagship phone.If you don't live in the people's republic of USA, were international cell phones are chased off the country like Taiwanese governments, I would tell you to find something chinese like a Poco 7, Otherwise your only alternatives are getting an S21/22 or a Pixel 6/7
>>106533157totally going to trust you over the editor for gsmarena who handles every phone released into the public. iOS can make the Pro Max battery out last a 7,000mah phone thanks to software optimization.
>>106533325>trusting a random "editor" on a websiteYeah I would also say X is the best if X shoved 100k in my pocket
>>106533293yeah for the price i dont think im gonna get anything better. just looking at the unlocked phones on amazon, you can get a 2025 moto g for 175 ameribux or the g stylus for 300. while the extra ram etc with the g stylus sounds nice on paper i really dont use my phone for anything intense and i dont think itd be worth the extra investment.
>>106533007This website is useless. Mine is 8gb and 256gb storage.
>>106533360gsmarena is in the ops first post for every spg. they are reputable and do not take money from any phone company. versus and nanoreview are trusted sources too. the only issue with gsmarena is the amount of fanboy reviews and bots.
>>106533373still lost even if i set it to that spec lmao
>>106533380>do not take money from any phone companyAs far as you know
>>106533393But it doesn't feel like it, I've used both.
>>106533399your opinions are not facts kid. you lost.
>>106533405run geekbench on both side by side. easy.
>>106533438Will try this.
>>106533426At least my opinions have not been bought
>>106533364If those are your choices, look into the Moto G Power. It's slightly more expensive than the French Vanilla Moto G, but it's pretty much the G Stylus without the titular stylus. It's got a mediatech processor instead of a snapdragon, but when it comes to performance, they're both at the same punching weight.
>>106532613Actual issue but it seems it won't affect you if you use a custom ROM
>>106532613nothingburger, you can use adb to install whatever
>>106531937>>stop posting phones over $1,000>>only $500 mid tier phones are allowed to be posted>>>Anyone aggressively promoting iPhone is an underage micropenis shill who should be ignoredyou guys are as autistic as ever
What small/light flagship should I go for?iPhone 16 Pro, Pixel 10 Pro, S25, S25 Edge, Xiaomi 15?I need it for standard stuff, like 2FA, messaging, mails, banking, car keys, music, navigation, calls and taking lots of family pictures. I am in the Apple ecosystem, but I want to escape and Android looks a lot more promising atm, especially all these AI features. I can charge all the time, so battery life is a 2ndary concern. MagSafe is cool, and I have it everywhere, but a MagSafe case should solve that.
>>106533511i was looking at the power as well, the 2024 model is gong for around 170 but no such deals for the new one, and for 300 id probably go with the 2025 stylus instead. id prefer to get a current model since moto are usually really shit with software support.
>>106533572>especially all these AI featuresStill unbaked, stay with iphone. I use Pixel 9 because freedom with lineage os.
>>106533500Why would anyone pay the 3 sites I mentioned to test and post good and bad results? No corporation would ever pay to have reviewers honestly talk about the good and bad.
>>106533572the 17 is about to be released soon though
>>106533596>Still unbaked, stay with iphone. I use Pixel 9 because freedom with lineage os.is galaxy fold 7 worth it or a meme?>unbakedI like my cookies half baked but ymmv
>>106533325>iOS can make the Pro Max battery out last a 7,000mah phone thanks to software optimization.Is that a fact or just your opinion?
>>106533596I would upgrade from an iPhone 14 Pro and what is unbaked? They look very impressive with that camera and text gen stuff.>>106533605Yeah, I guess I will wait the few hours and check what changes with the 17.
>>106533632>I would upgrade from an iPhone 14 Prowhat the fuck are you wanting to upgrade already? there is barely any changes
>>106533572For your needs, just pick what you like in colors or design-wise. there's really no limiting factor, as a mater of fact you could do all of that with the bargain bin cheap versions of those models (Pixel 9a, Samsung S25 FE, etc) Yes, even the AI stuff from new androids would work.
>>106533630iPhone won kid.
>>106533600>this phone has these good and bad things about it>overall we score it 6/10>gets paid>overall we score it 9/10
>>106533572S25 is the smallest and lightest out of those and all around a solid phone with long software support. I'd get that.
>>106533640Dropped it on the beach and now the volume buttons are crunchy.
>>106533640huge difference between them. don't push your opinions onto people as facts little bro.
>>106533660>Dropped it on the beach and now the volume buttons are crunchy.man. just take it to one of those repair shops. saved you like $900 and you sound cute too
>>106533660you got sand in your cracks! ;)
>>106533648Is that a fact or your opinion?

>glue holding the back of my s20 is failingIs this a common issue? Should I rip it off and put some hot glue on it and slap it back on?
>>106533655Thanks mate, I will check it out. Is it better than the S25 Edge, I have mixed feeling about these Samsung's, they look really nice though.
>>106533676I opened it already and even sealed it properly afterward (got new glue seal on Alibaba, didn't use my trusty T-7000), but I think it would need a full disassembly, and it needs the buttons replaced.>and you sound cute tooI haven't heard that in a while, thank you.>>106533680Yes, I got sand in my cracks
>>106533754>I opened it already and even sealed it properly afterward (got new glue seal on Alibaba, didn't use my trusty T-7000), but I think it would need a full disassembly, and it needs the buttons replacedok now you really are a cute nerd>I haven't heard that in a while, thank you.*kisses you*
>>106533716The specs are almost identical, the Edge is larger and a bit thinner. If you want a relatively compact phone, S25 sounds better.
>>106532140its probably true, Amazon Japan leaked a xase for the phone earlier. you can see the new camera designhttps://www.notebookcheck.net/Sony-Xperia-10-VII-Leak-supposedly-reveals-design-with-brand-new-camera-module.1093113.0.html

You will make someone very happy and will be very happy in return, and that someone is not me, as I am a middle-aged married man.
>>106533975probably because they are cutting costs like with 1 vii and using oems

>>106533975why couldn't they have just... shaved off 8mm from the length instead... make it Zenfone 10 sized but with bezels...
>>106534186>b-but this thread is supposed to be useless!2025 Edge is some MediaTek garbage. 2023 was a legit flagship, hence $120 being a great deal--exactly the sort of thing /g/ used to talk about back when it was young white Americans.

What's the best budget phone right now? Looking at Samsung A36 but there are probably better Chinese phones... ?
>>106535804Software sucks ass
I have an iPhone 8
>>106535864>poco x7 pro is the value phone>Li-Ion only 150 euros cheaper and worse in literally everything. the 14t pro literally looks flagship tier at half the price.>>106535963>Software sucks assim a xiaomi owner and i understand this but supposedly they improved with HyperOS. that's literally the only reason i would not just get a Samsung now that im not a student anymore.
>>106536063>only 150 euros cheaper and worse in literally everything. the 14t pro literally looks flagship tier at half the price.unbeatable in its price range
>>106536063No matter how much they optimize HyperOS the phones still come full of undeletable apps that are always running in the background and the major OS updates nerf the SoC
>>106536088nah at that price the A56 is a no brainer. i can't see a reason to go for another chinesium without good hardware. also it looks like a toy. i've had a poco and no thanks.
>>106536255>100 euro difference
Give it to me raw, are the base Xiaomi Redmi note phones good? 14 5G good? Or am I getting shit that will die in a year or twoI am kinda interested in hyperOS too, xiaomi phones are the only really good priced phones here, even a56 is like €400 here. The CMF phone is cheap too but idk i dont like the brand that much
>>106536292it's the same price where i live
>>106533154i'm not a high profile target and don't game on my phone, only use it for messaging, browsing, calling and sometimes taking a picture. sounds like e/os/ is completely fine for that. my banking app seems to work with microg but also works fine through the webpage.
Watching the live keynote and they claim the Apple A19 Pro is the most powerful chip in any smartphone. I need this to get bench marked tested asap.
They also said the iPhone 17 Air is esim only globally. They are talking about the iPhone 17 Pro and showing the video and picture taking quality. They also revealed that the entire keynote is filmed with one as well.
>>106536476It will be for a few days until the Elite 2 and 9500 drop
>>106536375you know you can go to a store and buy one then return within 14 daysstay away from base 4g ones, they haven't changed at all in yearshyperos is okay, bloat can be uninstalled, recommendations disabledit's just that the amount of ads and bloat highly depends where you bought the phone from and what the phone is, the most ad ridden xiaomi devices are under $200 xiaomis in india since they have to be competitive with brands like iqoo or tecnosince this is /g/ you should have no problems debloating any xiaomi at all
>>106536554Elite 2 yes, but no Dimensity is ever that good.see: >>106532325
>>106536030Forsen?
iphone 17 or iphone air?
Is CMF Phone 2 Pro the best budget phone ever made? Why does /g/ never talk about it?
those new base iphone colors are so fucking ugly holy shit. that green especially is offensively gross. i'm guessing it's to push the itoddlers who fall for the yearly phone meme into buying the pro or the air, right?
2025/2026 will be the ugly phone generation

>>106536454e/OS/ is nice and all, but beware - if someone snatches your phone and has knowledge of flashing Android ROMs (or has recourse to someone who does) they can simply flash the stock ROM and relock the bootloader and sell it.Not so with GrapheneOS since they explicitly encourage you to relock the bootloader with their custom key, something Murena's OS can't do last time I checked. All a thief would get is a paperweight or at best sell it for parts. Personally, I gave up trying to run fully free non-Google Android because when I tried GrapheneOS on my Pixel 7 Pro and then Pixel 8 I ended up wanting RCS (we don't just use WhatsApp much here) which meant I ended up installing Play Services... ending up with regular Pixel minus some key features like Mobile Payments and SafetyNet/PlayIntegrity passing (so some apps/games still wouldn't work).

happy enough with my pixel 10. main camera sensor is shit though. like i feel it's worse than my 7a somehow.

>>106538053>they look fully sick>I mean full blown GRIDS sickly>>106538097What you don't want terrible battery life? Best part is 90% or more will slap a MONSTER XTRA PROTECTION CASE on it completely destroying any point to a thin phone.Oh, and that one camera on the back? It STILL juts out from the rectangular area so you still get the wobble on a table lmao.
>>106538208Not really. I only paid £50 out of pocket for this phone due to trade ins and compensation from google fuck ups. Couldn't get nearly the same for the iPhone.
>>106537750so securitywise e/os/ is worse vs a thief with rom flashing than a regular android or ios phone?

>>106537750>>106538394looked it up, they do support relocking but not on all phones. fp6 is supported tho: https://doc.e.foundation/devices/FP6
>>106538489Oh I have only used it on Pixels and only GrapheneOS supported relocking. e/OS/ and Lineage couldn't do it and expressly told you not to lest you soft brick the device.
>>106536710>3000mahlollmao even
>love the designs of s22u to s25u>but never bought one because I had another phone and i hate low light performance and the issues they have with moving subjects>s26u will very likely fix those issues>they botched the design with some ugly camera island and even more rounded corners FUCK.
>>106538097I would have been okay with this if it was a shorter phone because these phones are TOO LONGEven that motorola flip phone is too LONG unfolded. Why do they keep making iT TALLER? ? ? ??
>>106538629I'm trying to like it but the more I look at it the uglier it getsWhy don't these 2 lenses have an island as well? It looks so dumb
>>106538524fair. i had a pixel 7 that i replaced 2 weeks before end of 1 year warranty because the battery swelled up and popped the screen off. before that, the lock button flew out because one of the rubber fixtures for the button basically crumbled. on the replacement i accidentally smashed the screen back panel, destroying the camera glass and permanently damaging the lens (shards or dirt got under it). i took it to repair and they quoted me north of 400eur, at which point i was like nah lol, i'm gonna get a new phone. hence why no longer into pixels and in the market for fp6 which i can (theoretically) fix myself without becoming a jeet phone repair store
I didn't think upgrading from my pixel 7 would be this hard...right now iPhone 17 is looking to be the only viable option.
>>106538830Pixel 10 Pro? Its three generations newer but still not a high performing SoC. Telephoto lens is a game changer if you ever take pictures, I use it more than the wide/ultrawide lenses.
OHNONONONOLOOK AT THE TOP OF HIS HEADPFFFFFAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHA
>>106538830>pixel 7lmao why would you upgrade now? Wait at least 2 more years you impulsetard. Do you have a problem with the battery? Just buy a new one for 20 bucks
>>106538932yeah I was looking at it but the more I read about it the more apparent it is that Google really fucked up the pixel 10 series, primarily the new tensor chip. there is something seriously wrong with the modem, despite being the same as in the 9, because it is apparently the culprit of massive battery drain and the gpu has serious performance issues because they cheaped out with PowerVR impl, to the point where even running the phone with native resolution causes hickups, recent tests show it has the battery life of a samsung edge despite having 1000mah more.cameras are also unchanged from Pixel 9 but the images are still decent. but the zoom in jitter, portrait cutouts and video quality is just as shit as it was on pixel 7 pro. idk what the fuck they are doing over at google. they also cheaped out on the battery component which is why they have to cap it to 200 cycles.honestly im a pixel fan, im even an android dev so ive huffed my share of copium but honestly this phone is so disappointing, from a hardware engineering standpoint and software standpoint. all the new AI features are also complete useless gimmicks. the only edge I will give to the pixel is that it has a good design, the new iPhone pro looks like shit.but your comment made me realize Im really missing a telephoto.>>106539066the fingerprint reader is really shit and I have to scan it 3 times until I get through, and I want a telephoto.
>>106539096I have a pixel7a and never had a problem with the finger reader desu
>>106539034This legitimately is the ugliest phone I've ever seen in and i believe that pro sales will tank because of itI know that normies wanna have the latest shiny thing but they want such thing to look good
>Make phone Aluminium>Only make it in 3 colorsHuh? I thought one of the benefits of Aluminium was that the metal is easy to color
>>106539066I bought a 16 Pro Max 6 months ago and will be upgrading to the 17 Pro Max
>>106539189You don't count because you are clinically retarded
>>106538652they try to have all their flagship and foldable phones the same design
>>106539034this is ugly as fuck and i am going to laugh at every retard who buys this shit
>>106539220Why? It's so stupid
>>106532297that's gorgeous indeed, why can't snoy design the PS5 in the same way? xperias are the last good thing sony has, and they're charging good for them
>>106532297>whySo that you can do this.
Anyone else thinking that the iPhone air is just a proof of concept for a foldable phone and next year they'll pretend they've redefined the smartphone experience by putting two iPhone airs together as a foldable. Because it looks the same as the Samsung galaxy fold in terms of thickness and the way the screen is a bit longer than normal. I can already see the marketing that casuals will cream over.>le ipad in your hand
>>106532297i blame google
>>106539279"Marketing"
Is the Xiaomi 15 any good, it looks and feels a lot better than any Samsung, maybe the S25 Edge gets close feel wise, tried both in store, but it gets mogged spec wise. I want to pull the trigger for either.
>>106539338go with the one you feel has a better camera than the other
Anyone else getting the 2TB version? It's $3799 though
>>106539373Of what? Why do you need 2TB? Are you Jaime Rivera?
Apple and Samsung Won.
>>106539405>Why do you need 2TB?I save a lot of porn videos on my phone and my iCloud storage is full
>>106539418why would you need porn on your phone?
>>106539418Why though? Do you go places where there is no service and goon?Saving porn always reminds me of someone bottling large amounts of tap water, it's literally always available. Maybe you are into super weird stuff though, good luck getting over your addiction. I don't even have 2TB in my desktop LMAO but I'm not a hoarder.
>one camera sensor on a 1000$ phonewhat is this 2013?
>>106532042wtf these humiliation rituals are getting out of handwhich manufacturer?
>>106539635xiaomoi "the rom friendly phone maker"
>>106532572>Unless you are on a shitty US carrier with a whitelist.How does it even work
>>106532578>6/128No
>>106531889Now that the dust has settled, why did the iPhone 17 series fail?
>>106539405ps3 roms
these are my options for a phone plan renewal, what do i cops25, iphone 15, iphone 16, iphone 15 plus, honor 400, pixel 9, reno 14f, redmi note 14 pro plus, motorola edge 60 pro
>>106539903S25
120 dorrar for this?
>>106539927It comes with the afro wig though
is the basedny only upgrade path from my samsung a8 2018? i am used to glass/metal and i do not want notch
>>106540003>nooooooo not a tiny hole in the middle of unused space.>yes! More bezels!Why? I don't even notice it in games, but then again I mostly emulate older stuff. But even in Wuthering Waves it isn't an issue.
>>106540075Arguing with schizo is bad idea
>>106540075>i got used to shit easily u should todid not ask really
>>106539495use case for multiple cameras?
>>106540110You're such a funny silly boy! :3
>>106540110More bezel is worse than hole punch. Keep your iPhone SE alike Android until in-display selfie cameras are of a decent quality and reach mass adoption if you want. It's literally not something I notice.
Since it's just made of a single chunk of aluminium now doesn't that mean its much stronger than past iPhones? If the entire chassis is one single piece of metal then the only thing that can go wrong with it is the screen gets cracked or popped off
i will take a shitty defective sony phone over any phone with a notch
>>106540255yes they said it is the strongest in anti bend tests and both side have a strong glass.
Fuck Google for popularizing this horizontal camera array shitLooks ugly as fuck
>>106539410>TabletSir this is smartphone general
>>106540270I wish it was solid titanium so it had a bit of heft to it. Tired of phone companies bending to soiboys with woman wrists that can't handle holding a 200g phone up for 5 mins
>>106540298my bad bro, too many dabs sir.
im preordering the 17 proi hope the lidar is improved because i want to use it as a 3d scanner more, it claims to have a better gyro at least
Are you buying the air /g/?
>>106539338vivo x200
>>106540603No I like my phones thicc. I put on the biggest, thickest case I can to maximize grip
>>106540603s26 or oneplus 15
The fact that Android is stopping people from installing apps on their phone soon is really bothering me because I just got into emulation and I had to install something from GitHub and I don't think that that will be allowed anymore am I wrong
>>106532578It's best to get the A25 8GB/256GB if you can, even has the headphone jack the A26 ditched.
>>106540759I think the idea is that you will own nothing, and you will be happy
>>106540827SD Card slot?
